Harry Redknapp thought ‘sinister things’ amid wife’s COVID battle

OHMYGOSSIP — Harry Redknapp started to think “sinister things” amid his wife’s battle with COVID-19.
The 75-year-old former Tottenham Hotspur manager has been married to his wife Sandra since 1967, and he’s admitted to being really worried at the height of her health struggle.
Harry – who starred on ‘I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!’ in 2018 – said: “The symptoms weren’t good, if I’m truthful. You start to think about all kinds of sinister things. It’s been a real worry.
“Sandra has suffered. Her voice had packed up and she was struggling for breath. Even swallowing food became difficult. She could choke on food easily if we weren’t careful.”
Sandra was hit by COVID in January after a New Year’s Eve visit to a restaurant, and the virus left her with “paralysed” vocal chords.
She told the Sunday Mirror newspaper: “I think COVID attacked previous surgery that I’d had on my neck.
“You don’t realise what your vocal cords do until they’re not working, because it affects breathing as well as talking. The shortness of breath was very difficult. My voice would vibrate and was very weak.
“I had lots of tests. I had one lot of surgery in May, which was fine for a while. Then we went on holiday and came back and it went again, so I had to have a second one. I couldn’t talk for three days afterwards so our granddaughter Molly got a notepad and I had to write down messages.”
Despite this, Sandra thinks she’s now “on the mend”.
She said: “I was struggling with it for six or seven months. Even now if I’m talking a lot my voice starts to get a bit sore. But, fingers crossed, I’m on the mend.”
